Deadly deceit

Natalie Walters, 1978-

eBook - 2019

Independent and tenacious journalist Vivian DeMarco is back in Walton, Georgia, for one reason--to do her job and get out. When her boss suddenly dies under suspicious circumstances, Vivian's only hope for finding the truth--and the next big story--is small-town law enforcement's lanky poster boy, Deputy Ryan Frost. But the deeper they dig, the more twisted the truth becomes, and Vivian finds herself fighting for not only answers but also her life. False leads, incriminating emails, and someone called The Watcher force Vivian to confront the secret of her past and decide: How much is she willing to risk for the sake of a headline? Author Natalie Walters welcomes you back to Walton, Georgia, where everyone knows your name--but no o...ne knows your secret.

Review by Booklist Review

Vivian DeMarco will do anything to reclaim her journalist's edge after a career stumble lands her back in small-town Walton, Georgia. When suspicions around her boss' sudden death lead to a series of attacks, robberies, and cryptic blackmail cases, Vivian's drive for answers gets personal. But the last thing Deputy Ryan Frost needs is a stunning reporter underfoot, putting herself in danger and driving him to distraction. Sparks fly amidst their contentious involvement in the case and the intense risks to their safety, and their hearts drive Vivian and Ryan to the edge as they hunt a dangerous cyber criminal. The second (after Living Lies, 2019) in Walters' Harbored Secret series delves into themes of self-worth, dreams, and identity. She crafts chilling antagonists and irresistible protagonists who illuminate the crux of human desperation, including how far people will go to hide a mistake and to expose another's weakness. Its fast and entwined plot lines, exciting twists, and electrifying conclusion will appeal to fans of suspenseful inspirational romances like Susan May Warren's Montana Rescue series.--Kate Campos Copyright 2019 Booklist
